I am running the Manchester Marathon on Sunday 3 April 2022 in memory of my mum, Pamela Hindley, who passed away on 1 May 2020. I am raising money for two charities - Marie Curie and Farleigh Hospice. Both of these charities provided amazing support for my mum when my brother, sister and I cared for her in her home, when she was diagnosed with terminal cancer during the first COVID lockdown in April 2020. The local Hospice, Farleigh, was closed due to the pandemic, but their staff provided care for my mum in the home every day. Marie Curie provided care for my mum overnight. The support of both of these charities was excellent and helped us through this very difficult time.
